Ran was too gleeful to consider the movement a threat.
"The Mansion likes to pull in different versions of us from worlds where things happened differently," he explained, turning to the next door and placing his hand on the doorknob. "There's at least four of us here -- five, now that you've shown up -- a bunch of Shinichis -- you do know Shinichi, right?"
Ran couldn't really imagine a world where he and Shinichi weren't friends, but he'd already met that one reversed Conan whose 'Shinichi' didn't even exist, so he figured it was safer to ask. What would Shinichi be like in the Edo period, anyway? Probably a member of a high-ranking samurai family, though Hattori was always the one who was best at kendo...
The karateka belatedly realized that he was letting his mind wander. Giving himself a shake, he tightened his grip on the doorknob and thought, Bathroom. Bathroom with a tub.
When he turned the knob and opened the door, the glint of white tile was a sign that the Mansion was listening. Ran cast around on the wall for a light switch and found it, flicking it on and revealing a small bathroom with a western-style tub. He grinned and stepped inside. "We can put the torch out in here."
